Okay, to try and get this thread back on track and up over 50 posts (though my questions are serious);

Even though I haven’t finished my ’02 Mobius, I picked up another boat (bigger) and have decided (possibly) to go with four (two sets) of Wetsounds Icon8 tower speakers – Not revs because we listen to music on the boat and at 75’ off I am too busy falling hard to listen to music.

If I wire the 4 ohm Icon8s to 2 ohms, would my current Kicker IX500.2 be enough of an amp?

Or do I need to go to something like the Wetsounds HT2?

If I do need to go with new amps, I can use my current Kicker amps on our Pontoon boat which needs a full on stereo system.

And one more question;

Would six (three sets) of in-boat Kicker speakers powered by a Kicker IX1000.5 hold up to the WS Icon8s?

boy, now I feel like an old member. I'd tell ya all to go search minimalist ballast, but it's been deleted

now in all seriousness...
I'm running 4 icon8's on my tower and running an arc ks300.2 so should see 350x2 and it powers them just fine.
I also have 6 ws inboats running off an arc 300.4 and don't notice any issues, but I also have a zld to adjust the levels of each. when surfing, we like to run more tower and less inboat so people can chat.
